After launching the script you will be presented with a menu where you have a couple of options. To continue, simply enter the number of the desired option and hit enter.

Win11Debloat's default mode allows you to quickly and easily apply the changes that are recommended for most people. This includes removing many annoying distractions, disabling telemetry and tracking and optionally uninstalling the default or your custom selection of apps. Please refer to this page a full run-down of all changes that are included as part of the default mode.

In the Custom Mode you have more control over what changes the script makes to your system. It is recommended that you carefully read through all the options here to prevent disabling features and removing apps that you may actually want to use. In case you do accidentally disable something that you want to re-enable, don't worry! We have a full guide here on how to revert changes made by the script.

Win11Debloat will automatically remember the settings you selected in Custom Mode, allowing you to quickly re-apply them whenever you run the script in the future. The last used settings are saved to the SavedSettings file in the root folder of the script. If you used the Quick Method to launch the script, this can be found in %temp%/Win11Debloat.

If you're only interested in quickly removing pre-installed applications you can use the App Removal Mode. After selecting this mode you'll be greeted with an interface where you can select all the apps that you wish to uninstall. Apps that Win11Debloat considers bloatware will be selected by default. You can find more information about app removal here.

Win11Debloat will automatically remember your app selection, so you can quickly uninstall unwanted apps again. The custom apps selection is saved to the CustomAppsList file, found in the root folder of the script. If you used the Quick Method to launch the script, this can be found in %temp%/Win11Debloat.

This option is only shown if you've previously run the script in Custom Mode or the App Removal Mode. It allows you to quickly apply the custom settings that you used last time. As explained above, your last used custom settings and app selection are saved to the SavedSettings and CustomAppsList files respectively, which are saved to the root folder of the script. If you used the Quick Method to launch the script, these can be found in %temp%/Win11Debloat.

Both the quick and advanced launch methods support command-line parameters, these allow you to customize the behaviour of Win11Debloat to meet your needs. To use parameters, simply launch the script as you normally would, but add the parameters you want to use at the end with spaces in between.

For instance, you can run the script with the -RunDefaults and -Silent parameters to quickly apply the default settings of the script and skip all interactive prompts. Example:

& ([scriptblock]::Create((irm "https://debloat.raphi.re/"))) -RunDefaults -Silent

A table of all the supported parameters and what they do can be found below.
